Branched Chain Amino Acid Aminotransferase
The kinetics of transamination reactions catalyzed by pig heart “branched chain amino acid” aminotransferase was investigated. The activation of aged preparations by 2mercaptoethanol, previously noted, was associated with increases in both the maximum velocity and enzyme-substrate affinities. This implies a protein conformational change. The sharp pH optimum observed with standard assay conditi...
متن کاملBranched-chain amino acid metabolism in cancer
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The current review aims to provide an update on the recent biomedical interest in oncogenic branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism, and discusses the advantages of using BCAAs and expression of BCAA-related enzymes in the treatment and diagnosis of cancers. RECENT FINDINGS An accumulating body of evidence demonstrates that BCAAs are essential nutrients for cancer growth...
متن کاملBranched-chain amino acid catabolism in bacteria.
The enzymatic conversions necessary for the catabolism of branched-chain amino acids have been reported to occur in a wide variety of bacteria. However, most studies have been done using several species of Pseudomonas. Pseudomonads are richly endowed with extraordinary nutritional versatility, which enables them to catabolize a diverse array of organic compounds (64), including the branchedchai...
متن کاملIsolation and Amino Acid Sequence Studies*
Glucagon was isolated from a side fraction generated during the preparation of insulin and the new pancreatic peptide, avian pancreatic polypeptide from chicken pancreas. The immunological and biological properties are similar to those of beef-pork glucagon. The amino acid composition of chicken glucagon indicates that it contains 1 more serine residue than the porcine hormone and 1 less aspart...
